Wallace the Brave by Will Henry for March 23, 2022

We don’t know how far Rose’s went. Suspense!

Ok, so Rose wasn’t the one to invent the boomerang. But, did she make it into the Guinness Book?

Red Bull holds a paper air plane competition. It always looks like it be a blast to attend.

Spud’s would go backwards. And he hurt himself in the effort!

So because of its return flight, Spuds actually flew twice as far as anyone else’s…

This is why serious model glider competitions (like at the TSA) measure loft time, not distance.

Spud’s design is aerobatic, that should be worth bonus points.

That’s a kind of magic too.

Good thing the teacher’s wearing glasses! Just in case..

I wonder if Spud will be asking to go to the school nurse for some ice.

Spud’s went farther than I thought it would.

You could put someone’s eye out with that thing.

That’s what happens when you model your paper airplanes after Russian fighter jets.

Uhoh, I can’t tell exactly what Wallace is holding, but it doesn’t look like your ordinary paper plane, and he’s up next.

According to those X’s on the floor, most of them are duds.

Well that was predictable

The teacher is unflappable.

What, no bonus points for accidentally creating a trick-flying paper plane?

Actually, Spud’s plane went twice as far as everyone else’s.

What about measuring distance in how far the airplane traveled, not where it landed?

We all know Wallace will win. It’s the creativeness that has us on pins and needles. Also waiting for Amelia’s flight. It might be a tossup. (See what I did there?)

I like how Wallace’s plane has a pilot.

Isn’t the seagull rolling his eyes at Spud’s lame attempt? Haha.
